Aetna Announces New HRA Funding Guidelines.

---

What is changing?

Effective February 1, 2012 for new business and groups making a plan change at renewal, these plans,

• MC HRA HDHP $3000 80%/50%
• MC HRA $5000 80%/50% and
• HMO deductible plan

will be the only plans eligible to have any form of employer-sponsored funding (wrap plan) to fund the deductible, coinsurance or copayment amounts. The 50 percent limitation no longer applies.

Groups offering a Health Savings Account (HSA) may contribute to an employees' federally qualified HSA account. HSA plans are not eligible for any form of employer sponsored funding (wrap plan).


Fees waived

First year HRA set up fees will be waived by Aetna's administration service for new groups with January 1 through December 15, 2012 effective dates.
